Set in the 1920s and 1930s, the film focuses on Leonard Zelig (Woody Allen), a nondescript man who has the ability to transform his appearance to that of the people who surround him. He is first observed at a party by F. Scott Fitzgerald, who notes that Zelig related to the affluent guests in a thick, refined accent and shared their Republican sympathies, but while in the kitchen with the servants he adopted a ruder tone, and seemed to be more of a Democrat. He soon gains international fame as a "human chameleon".

Dix femmes, vivant pour la plupart à Vancouver ou à Toronto, parlent de leur vie de lesbienne dans les années 1940, 1950 et 1960 : elles découvrent les romans en fascicules de l'époque sur les femmes amoureuses, leurs premières aventures, la douleur de la rupture, la fréquentation des bars gays, les descentes de police, les réactions des hommes et l'étiquette des rôles masculins et féminins. Les interviews et les images d'archives sont entrecoupées de quatre chapitres dramatisés d'un roman de gare, "Forbidden Love" : Laura quitte son bled pour la ville, où elle rencontre Mitch dans un bar. Les étincelles fusent, les rires et la joie aussi. Ann Bannon, l'un des auteurs de ces romans de poche sur l'amour interdit, parle du genre.

In 1936 Tokyo, Sada Abe (Eiko Matsuda) is a former prostitute who now works as a maid in a hotel. The hotel's owner, Kichizo Ishida (Tatsuya Fuji), molests her, and the two begin an intense affair that consists of sexual experiments and various self-indulgences. Ishida leaves his wife to pursue his affair with Sada. Sada becomes increasingly possessive and jealous of Ishida, and Ishida more eager to please her. Their mutual obsession escalates to the point where Ishida finds she is most excited by strangling him during lovemaking, and he is killed in this fashion. Sada then severs his penis, walks around with it inside her for several days, and writes, "Sada Kichi the two of us forever," in blood on his chest.
